The chloroplast ycf3 and ycf4 open reading frames of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii are required for the accumulation of the photosystem I complex
The chloroplast genes ycf3 and ycf4 from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have been characterized. The deduced amino acid sequences of Ycf4 (197 residues) and Ycf3 (172 residues) display… Expand

Directed chloroplast transformation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: insertional inactivation of the psaC gene encoding the iron sulfur protein destabilizes photosystem I.
The chloroplast gene psaC encoding the iron sulfur protein of photosystem I (PSI) from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has been cloned and characterized. The deduced amino acid sequence is… Expand

Arsenic release from flooded paddy soils is influenced by speciation, Eh, pH, and iron dissolution.
Arsenic (As) is highly mobilized when paddy soil is flooded, causing increased uptake of As by rice. We investigated factors controlling soil-to-solution partitioning of As under anaerobic… Expand

Iron-Sulfur Cluster Assembly
The synthesis of iron-sulfur clusters inEscherichia coli is believed to require a complex protein machinery encoded by the isc (iron-sulfur cluster) operon. The product of one member of this operon,… Expand

An Intestinal Parasitic Protist, Entamoeba histolytica, Possesses a Non-redundant Nitrogen Fixation-like System for Iron-Sulfur Cluster Assembly under Anaerobic Conditions*
We have characterized the iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster formation in an anaerobic amitochondrial protozoan parasite, Entamoeba histolytica, in which Fe-S proteins play an important role in energy… Expand

Improved mammalian vectors for high expression of G418 resistance.
Cell lines, such as those of teratocarcinoma and embryonic stem cells, fail to support high G418 resistance after transfection of neo vectors. To alleviate this, we modified pSV2-neo in two steps,… Expand

Dictyostelium IQGAP-related Protein Specifically Involved in the Completion of Cytokinesis
The gapA gene encoding a novel RasGTPase-activating protein (RasGAP)–related protein was found to be disrupted in a cytokinesis mutant of Dictyostelium that grows as giant and multinucleate cells in… Expand

An alternative approach to deoxyoligonucleotides as hybridization probes by insertion of deoxyinosine at ambiguous codon positions.
Two deoxyoligonucleotide probes (23-mer and 26-mer) carrying deoxyinosine residues (I) at positions corresponding to ambiguous nucleotides derived from amino acid sequence have been synthesized by… Expand

The chloroplast ycf8 open reading frame encodes a photosystem II polypeptide which maintains photosynthetic activity under adverse growth conditions.
We have engineered and analyzed a chloroplast mutant of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii that lacks ycf8, the chloroplast open reading frame 8, which is highly conserved in location and predicted amino acid… Expand
